Replying to: boomchek (Nov 21, 2008 3:47 pm) I always thought it was amusing that early MB R129 have the same steering wheel as later W126 cars, but those ones you post are just insane. I honestly had no idea about that Aston or the Lotus.

Replying to: fintail (Nov 21, 2008 6:54 pm) I think the big reason the steering wheels were shared was for the airbags, as initially they were big and bulky, and you wouldn't be able to fit one in a smaller sports type steering wheel. The Aston/Taurus steering is probably the most extreme and ugliest example of parts sharing.

| I saw a red Audi R8 today, all body color, no odd trim. The driver looked like Jeremy Clarkson...in another 20 years with maybe 50 more pounds. | |

Not sure what all they hype is about... It looks a little like an RX330... And, the Taurus X and the Pacifica have done the wagon thing, already... It is fairly attractive for a whatever it is..
